I get the warning also. I’ve never figured it out. I just ignore it.

Safety warning. Makes you intentionally open locked door latch twice and wants you to look for traffic before swinging the door open.

Never seen this message on my 2024 Carrera S.....???

Once inside, I pull the door handle just a little and it releases the door. The interior door handle is an electronic switch, not a mechanical release.

I would have the switch adjustment looked at by the dealer, assuming you are still under warranty. There maybe something blocking the handle from fully resetting.

Is your engine running when this happens?

Yes. The ECU automatically locks and unlocks doors when starting and stopping the engine. The warning message pops up anytime I am in driver’s seat and try to open the door with the engine running.
